Quality control is key set standards that a manufacture has to consider when producing a garment. It can be defined as the level of acceptance of goods or services. All products that are maufactured must under go a series of quality control checks before the garment or product can be manaufactuerd.

Quality control within the textile and apparel industry is a range of things such as standards of fibers, fabric, yarn-wool, fabric construction, colouring and the design or printing within a garment.

Common quality related problems that are often seen in garment maunfacuturing are sewing, colour, the sizing or placement of logos.

All of these standards are essential for any garment manufacturer or trader or exporter to ensure that the needs or requirements of the product are met.

This can affect profit and sales as damaged or poor designed garments wont sell!!

Imagine buying a pair of jeans with a broken zipper, or a coat without the third button.. would you still purchase these items?

Poorly made garments wont sell and will result in loss of sales which = loss of profit.

Good quality produced garments = HAPPY CUSTOMERS.
